The re forms which the liberal party, it was fondly hoped, would institute, will get no favor from a conservative ministry. The tide of political advancement will be checked or turned back and all the conditions of a stern conservatism will prevail. This seems to be demanded by the present sentiment of the British people, for it is helieved that in the event of a dissolution of Parliament and 1 general eleetion the conservatives would win a declsive victory.

There is reason to believe that the change will not increase the difficultios in the way of settling these questions, for it is lavdly probable that with Salisbury at the head of the British government would be a less friendly spirit toward the Uaited States than cbery ministry has manifested, rticularly with respeet to the Bering sea matter, There is another inter- esting question suggested by the change, and that is the possible effect It may have upon the canse of bimetallism in it Britain, Salisbury and Balfour e on record as favorable to bimetal- lism, the latter being one of its strong est advocntes, and it is reasonably to ba expected that their power would give a great the eause.

NO MORE TRIFLING City Treasurer Bolln declares that he is in the hands of his friends. We take this to mean that he is ready to step down and out if his friends adyise him to do so or to hold onto his office if they request him to remain.

The total vote in the efty of Omaha at the last general city election in No- ember, 1893, was, for mayor, 16,1 which number Bemis recelved 6,874, Bedford 4765, Hascall ), Mereer 504 The highest vote received by any democrat was rveceived by Howell for councilman-at-large, who polled 7.4 but Howell received ful 00 repul- lican votes because in making up tickets of nine men many republicans selected what they considered the most avai ble timber. Last year in the most ting ber of votes cast for any democrat w polled for James E. Boyd. His total vote in Douglas county was GHM6, and in Omaha alone less than 5500, The total vote cast for both Boyd and Deaver in Douglas counry only aggre- gated 10,028, as against 11,019 received by Mercer. The aggregate vote polled in Douglas county for state treasurer gave the candidate of the free silver democrats 67, and that of the Mor- ton democrats 1,614, or a total for the two of 5,281, These figures certainly afford very lit- tle comfort to the die-mn-the-last-ditch democrats. They show beyond any doubt that even if it were possible to fuse the free silver democrats with the str. hopeless minority if party lines were drawn. EPORTS, BEITER CHOP One of the most important functions of the Agricultural department is fur- nishing crop reports, but the value of this service depends upon the trust- worthiness of the reports and generally they bave not possessed this charact This fact has been admitted by the department officials and they have very properly formulated a new system, which it is announced is practically completed and will be at once put into operation. The plan is said to be v comprehensive, requiring the work of about 50,000 agents. The country has been divided into groups of states, of which there are twenty-one, which is less than half the number of divisions under the old arrangement. There is to be appointed a statistical correspond- v s ent in each township in the United States, who will report directly to the statlstican of the department, and whose reports will be consolidated into averages, thus furnishing a safeguard against error. It is stated that the seeretary of agriculture will ask con- gress to authorize an annual agriculture census, which will furnish accurate data regarding area and product of the principal crops, thereby affording a bet- ter basis for crop than any now available, It is very important that crop statis- ties should be as nearly as possible aceuvate. The Agricultural depart- ments of foreign governments are ex ceedingly careful in this matter and re ports sent out by them are accepted b; all interested as being as nearly correct as it is possible to make them. It has been conclusively shown that the re- ports of our department, at least dur- ing the last two or three years, have been far from trustworthy and there hi been an earnest demand for im- provement from commercial bodies and from grain growers. The National rd of Trade had the watter under consideration at its subitted to the Department of Agri culture a plan for getting crop statls ties, much of which has been adopted The working of the new system, which it is said, by the way, will be operated ut less cost'to the government than the statistic 1St session and ses in ealling for | shits they would still remain in a | though | [cured an o electi s highes: | ence with pers ite election the highest num- | gy construed, except Pete Birkhauser, who began his po litical eareer in Richardson county as a republican, beeame a convert to green- backism, then joined the anti-monopoly party, and finally landed in the bosom of Toburlington Castor as a square-toed railrond democrat, is highly incensed at the proposed citizens' movement. He insists that nothing but a steaight democratie ticket will get his support in the local campaign. What else could have been expected of a man who has boxed the political compass, solicited and se- ppointment as chairman of the Board of Public Works from a Roman Catholic mayor, got his con- firmation from the Twenty-cighters in the city council, and after rting witlr his job, took up with the howling der- visng Progressive Intemperan Chicago Times-Herald, People have to be Intemperate in something.

Attorney General Harmon has laid down the reasonable proposition that not all com- binations of capital are oppressive or illegal. But there are. combinations to which both these terms justly apply. The courts of New Jersey and Ilinois in particular have condemned centain trusts as conspiracies in restraint of trade and oppressive to the people. When the new attorney gencral shall be well settled in his office may we rot hope that he will look at the other side of the shield? _——— Compuisory | Chicago Chi Many of the railroads are doing more for the compulsory cause of temperance than all the prohibitionists and professional reform- ers.

New York Sun. The bicycle is not as dangerous to life and mb as the Brooklyn trolley, yet we have y_many reports of accldents to bicyclers. We have observed that most of them oceur because of the lack of skill on the part of the rider upon the vehicle. Many novices are fmpatient of the training which is required to obtain a thorough knowledge of the fine art of wheeling, and perfect command of the wheel in difficult situations. It looks to them like an easily acquired art when they see an expert on the fly, just as it my seem casy to runa train of cars when the engineer is seen sitting on his stool, or to ride horse- back when an experienced equestrian sweeps proudly along. A bicycler ought to know his machine as an engineer knows his engine or an equestrian his steed, and this knowl- edge can be obtained only by patient study of 'its peculiarities. It is dangerous to In- dulge In self-confidence before there is justi- fication for it. The bieycler who has a trained mind is all the safer for it. In turn, the bicycle Is a trainer of the mind. The professors of the art say that thoughtful people have a great advantage over the un- thoughtful as riders. We should suppose that to be so, for 5o it is in all the affairs of life. — - THE HORSE AND THE BIKE.

THE LEAGUE CONVENTION, Chicago Chronicle (dem.): The league was wis: In its own wap. The currency question will not give voters of the United States any concern a year hence. Chicago Record (Ind.): At any rate it is to be hoped that the delegates had a lot of fun. They return home knowing they are republicans, but walting until next year to find out what shall be thelr views of silver. Cleveland Plain Dealer (dem.): The Na- tion Republican league delogates met in Cleveland, heard the whistle of their mas- ters in Wall street, curled their tails be tween their hind legs and went home. They expressed no opinion on any national issue, not even the money question. What a brave lot of men, how wise in council, how cour- ageous in action. Chicago Inter Ocean (rep): The Repub- lican league convention has been disappoint- ing only to democrats. It has done nothing that the democratic papers sald it would do, but has followed republican counsels and the precedents of former league conventions, rec ognizing that it {e only an auxiliary organiza- tion, with no power to make party platforms or name candidates, Globe-Democrat (rep): The Republican National league convention manifested its ense by quietly but firmly declining action on the silver question or any other troublesome fssue. That is to say, it refuesd to glve ald and comfort to the enemy by violating its own constitution, which d clares that it “shall not in any manner deavor to influence any national, state, county or municipal convention. St. Paul Ploneer Press (rep): In weakly felding to the impudent bluster of the repr entatives of the silver miners tuting the white flag of a cowardly for the standard of republican princ which they are pledged to advance and d. fend against all comers, they have given new courago and e to the subsidized bat talions of the Iver king: they have done what they could to sow dissension in the rauks of the republican party and to make harder the work which lles before it in 1896, New York Tribune (rep): The Repub- lican league was not organized to delight democrats and has not given them any pleasure. It has not chosen to fritter away ito strength in useless wrangling about the silver question, though great hopes of a row in the Cleveland convention had assuaged the sorrows of the beaten democracy. Neither has it consented to help free traders banish from public thought the one question to which they owe the worst defeat for a generation. Republican armies are not in the habit of spiking their own guns. Chicago Post (ind. rep.): The action of the committes on resolutions is proof that in one party at least the free silver men will not be permitted to erect their banne: even as a temporary concession. It is said that a great majority of the delegates are for inter- national ‘bimetallism. ~ Well, that will do. International bimetallism is only an ami ble other phrase for sound money—a harm- less subterfuge bred by the warm weather and the desire to avoid conflict. So long as the majority are for international bimeta lism the country will not be troubled by n tional silver monometallism. Minneapolis Journal (rep.): Carter of Mon- tana and Trumbo of Utah profess to be very jubilant over the result of the Cleveland con- vention and speak of it as a great victory for silver. It is the same kind of a victory that a man wins when some one gets a judgment against him in court and he suc- coeds in securing a stay of execution for a and substi- truce little while, There was not a minute during that convention when the friends of sound money could not have passed the strongest kind of sound money resolutions by a vote of two to one, or four to one, and when the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 by this coun- try alone would not have been voted down by nearly 10 to 1. And for these friend of free silver to make the boastful claim the do now is to show themselves undeserving and unappreciative of the patience and con- sideration which the overwhelming majority exercised with regard to the feelings and wishes of a small minority in the Interest of harmony in the party.

Roundsman Michael Gorman, a New York policeman, who saved a man's life at the Battery last week, rescued twenty-four per- sons previously from death.

George Young Tweed, youngest son of the famous boss, disappeared from the haunts that knew his father too well, and turned up on a Massachusetts farm.

London Truth is quoted as hoping that Boss Croker and Dwyer will take their horses out of England and never bring them back Such a hope is not to be wondered at when the size of Dwyer's winnings through these same horses are considered.

Forty thousand dollars was the size of the last verdict entered up against Russell Sage in a New York court. A few years ago Mr. Sage's person was menaced by a bomb thrower. A loyal clerk was jerked to his rescue and garnered the flying fragments in- tended for Sage. The mutilated clerk sought balm for his wounds and the fourth trial just ended with this result. Although Sage escaped the bomb, the verdict is as painful and mortifying as if the Iron had entered his soul.
